[TV] Luther

[Garry Nelson's teacher]

Gave up after 15 minutes. It just seemed to try too hard.

Typical Luther. Ludicrous storylines, plot twists aplenty and returning villains.
Love it.

 

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

I thought Hermione was good in this. From the middle class ms.perfect in Cold Feet, to the middle class latent psychopath in Luther. Plus, you’ll think this is bad taste, I find her attractive.

She was brilliant in Spooks.

Haven't watched Luther. One to save up for after I retire, along with all of the David Suchet Poirots (have only ever watched one episode, and went directly to 'save for later' as I liked it so much) and all the mountains of scandi noir I have read about.....shame that work remains so more-ish

Similar plan re all Agatha Christie stuff and versions versions of Sherlock Holmes. Basil Rathbone (1940’s but still great) and the emotionally dark Jeremy Brett were my favourite Holmes’s. Plan to buy some boxsets one day.

Good entertainment, but bonkers!

I’ll settle for both

Love Hermione. She has been in so many good things and yes, as Roz in Spooks, wonderful!
We have seen all the David Suchet Poirots I think, and nobody else will do. Especially like the early ones featuring Miss. Lemon and Captain Hastings. Still watching whenever they are on ITV3.

Is Alice in it? She's the best.

Never seen Luther before, but i found it a load of rubbish last night.

Rummaging around a crime scene without wearing protective clothing - ridiculas.

How about having the shit beaten out of you and still being able to put a tie on without wincing

Back tonight

Can’t help but think there’s a link between some of your posts about the Albion and your opinion on Luther ..just can’t quite put my finger on it

Just finished. Completely bonkers dual story lines, with multiple murders by Alice, the gangland boss and the husband & wife psychopaths by the day.

But gripping all the same.

 

[CliveWalkerWingWizard]

How are they going to make a new series from that ending?

 

[Not Andy Naylor]

I presume that once they've done all the ballistics John will be completely cleared. Maybe a slap on the wrist for smacking the psycho killer around a bit.

 

[The Wookiee]

Am I right in thinking that this series ended in a similar way to how the first series started? Eg someone falling from his grip whilst trying to save them ?

I'm pretty sure thats correct

 

[Knocky's Nose]

It'll be like trying to unravel Amazon's international accounts when they start again! Don't think his fellow female officer deserved her noggin blowing out by Alice (or that f*cking duckface, as Mrs Nose calls her) though.

Was it just me, or did you think "Royle Family.. RIP" when the corpses were all sat in the lounge with the TV on..

It has clearly jumped the shark now, nowhere near as good as the first two series, but entertaining still mainly due to Elba’s acting and charisma coming through.

Not in bad taste at all, I would absolutely plough her !!!!

My thoughts too. They had to create even more ridiculous storylines to maintain a large interest, but it was still worth watching.

Quality acting and presence from Idris Elba, Ruth Wilson and Dermot Crowley.
